Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce

This is one of my favorite appetizers to order at any Asian restaurant. If it’s on the menu, I’m ordering it. You might be surprised to hear just how easy this is to make. I love this with the Peanut sauce below, however if you have a peanut allergy this is also delicious with homemade Coconut Mango sauce, or buy a jar of Mango chutney heat and serve. I’ve added this post as part of the Asian Flair Party recipes, however, I will be adding clearer and step by step pictures soon.

Chicken Satay Recipe

Ingredients:

1 -1/2 cups greek yogurt

2 Tbsp curry powder

2 lbs of chicken breast cut into strips approx. 2/3 inch

25 – 30 bamboo skewers (soaked in water for 30-45 minutes)

oil for grill pan or grill to prevent sticking

Cut chicken into strips and thread each piece on soaked skewers to make sure they stay in place while grilling

Lay skewers in square baking pan.

Combine all ingredients for marinade.

Using a sauce brush cover both sides of the chicken strips with the marinade

Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until ready to grill

On a hot oil grill or grill pan grill Chicken Satay for 4-5 minutes on each side, until grilled and cooked completely.

Serve immediately on a platter or place in a chaffing dish to keep warm. Serve with Peanut Satay Sauce.
